The Morar Hotel, Mallaig – 115 years of Heritage in the Highland, Scotland

WELCOME to
THE highlands

WE ARE CLOSED FOR WINTER

Reopening 7th March 2025

Nestled between the Silver Sand beaches and Loch Morar, The Morar Hotel is an idyllic 3-star hotel boasting over 100 years of heritage of a traditional Highland hotel. Being only 3 miles from Mallaig, the Southern Gateway to the Isle of Skye and 45 minutes from Fort William, it is your ideal destination for family and solo holidays.

TRUE SCOTTISH HERITAGE

Built in 1902, originally as the Station hotel, it still retains much of the charm it had when it first opened as well as its own railway station through which “the Hogwarts Express” passes through on its journey traversing the Glenfinnan Viaduct featured in the Harry Potter movies.

The Morar Hotel features breathtaking views of the famous Silver Sands of Morar and the Inner Hebridean islands of Rum & Eigg. The panoramic views and comfortable accommodation make it the perfect coastal escape. The scenery remains as unspoiled as it was decades ago when it inspired celebrated international composer and Master of the King’s Music, Sir Arnold Bax on his many winter stays in the hotel. With plenty of local attractions steeped in history, endless walking paths and cycling tracks across the highland moors, it is the perfect Highland holiday destination for all!

      “My 6th time staying at The Morar Hotel. An amazing location: just above the beautiful white sands of Morar estuary with a lovely wee path down to beach. Staff as usual were great and very welcoming with great smiles and time to talk. Particular thanks to Akram at the bar and reception with his warm chat, Trenton for his great conversation and Achini who went out of her way to make and prepare my room- very hard working people. Sunshine or rain they all take away any pain!”

But without a doubt, it is the staff that make the experience here. They are super friendly, helpful and professional. We had great chats with Akram that were a highlight of our stay.”
